Had to have the gearbox rebuilt after 15,000 miles (warranty covered).
Airbag light keeps coming on.
New front end looks the business.
Quick with superb handling for the low insurance.
Becoming a bit more common on the older shapes.
Superb economy for the engine size.
Interior could be better as it is a bit plastic and bland.
A bit tailend happy when pushed to the limit on corners.
Could anyone else post something up if they are experiencing gearbox problems, my gearchange is occasionally very notchy and sometimes won't engage properly, the dealer says it is just a lack of lubrication on the linkages, but I'm not so sure myself. I have a 99 T VTS.
My gearbox doesn't seem very good either. I have a '98 VTR and the gears are very notchy all the time, sometimes feels like it doesn't go into gear properly, and I can feel a clunk when I change gear. But apart from that!... Been to the dealer, apparently that's how the gears are on this type of car!
